1 Hello!

4 By default layman currently stores overlays into
5
6 /usr/local/portage/layman
7
8 (was /usr/portage/local/layman before that).
9 As of bug 253725 [1] that's not without problems.
10
11 I would like to get it right with the next switch.
12 Would
13
14 /var/lib/layman
15
16 do well? /var/cache/layman seems inadequate as it might not be
17 regenerated [2] without losses (as upstream moves along).
18
19 Would be great to hear a few opinions. Thanks!
